Monaco - Manchester United still undecided on Falcao

The Colombia international has scored just four goals in 22 Premier League appearances during his loan spell at the Old Trafford, but the club hold the option to buy him outright.

Monaco vice-president Vadim Vasilyev says that Manchester United have yet to make a decision on whether they will sign Radamel Falcao permanently at the end of the season.

United signed the Colombia international in a £6 million loan deal in September, and hold the option to buy the striker outright for £43.5m in the summer should they wish to.

However, Falcao has flattered to deceive at Old Trafford, scoring just four goals in 22 Premier League appearances thus far in 2014-15, and Vasilyev claims United are undecided over whether they will activate their clause to buy the 29-year-old.

"I saw Manchester United's board last Sunday & they've not decided whether to use Falcao's purchase clause." he told Nice Matin. “It’s not his best season, but they kept the opportunity to make a decision at the end of the season.”

Vasilyev also insists that a number of clubs are interested in signing Falcao, despite his poor season at Old Trafford, but says that they will wait to hear of United’s intentions before entering into negotiations with another club.

"We are not in other negotiations at the moment, even if other clubs are interested,” he added. “The decision is with Manchester United.” (Goal)

  1. Well I think you are partially right but I don't think Falcao needs time to fully recover from his long spell injury.
